IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when
using your appliance, follow these basic precautions
• Read all instructions before using the wine cellar.
• Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Do not remove grounding prong, do not use an
adapter, and do not use an extension cord.
• It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only your wine cellar, be provided.
Use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain.
• Never clean wine cellar parts with flammable fluids. These fumes can create a fire
hazard or explosion.
• Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power
line of the unit is disconnected.
• Do not connect or disconnect the electric plug when your hands are wet.
• Unplug the wine cellar or disconnect the power before cleaning or servicing. Failure
to do so can result in electrical shock or death.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your appliance unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
• Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Use two or more people to move and install the wine cellar. Failure to do so can
result in back or other injury.
• To ensure proper ventilation for your appliance, the front of the unit must be
completely unobstructed. Choose a well-ventilated area with temperatures above 61
°
F
(16
°
C) and below 95
°
F (35
°
C). This unit must be installed in an area protected from the
elements, such as wind, rain, water spray or drips.
• The wine cellar should not be located next to ovens, grills or other sources of high
heat.
• The wine cellar must be installed with all electrical connections in accordance with
state and local codes. A standard electrical supply (115V AC only, 60 Hz), properly
grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances, is required.
• Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord of the appliance.
• The fuse (or circuit breaker) size should be 15 amps.
• It is important for the wine cellar to be leveled in order to work properly. You may need
to make several adjustments to level it.
2
• Although the unit has been tested at the factory, due to transit and storage, you should
clean the appliance before use.
• Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners
may damage or discolor the interior.
• Do not use this apparatus for other than residential purposes.
DANGER! Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned appliances are still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in the garage a
few days”.
• Before you throw away your old wine cellar or any appliance: Remove the
door. Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
• Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Wine Cellar
Remove the exterior and interior packing.
Before connecting the wine cellar to the power source, let it stand upright for
approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the
cooling system from handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Install the handle on the left side of the door (see page 5).
Installation of Your Wine Cellar
This appliance is designed for free standing or built-in (fully recessed) installation.
If free standing, the unit should have at least 4” of clearance at both sides, at the
top and at the back to allow for adequate ventilation. If it is built-in, leave at least
3/16” at both sides, 1/16” at the top and 2” at the rear. Be sure that airflow under
the appliance is not blocked.
Place your wine cellar on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully
loaded. To level your wine cellar, adjust the front leveling legs at the bottom of
the unit.
Locate the wine cellar away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove,
heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat
sources may increase electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient
temperatures may also cause the unit to perform improperly.
Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
Plug the wine cellar into an exclusive, properly installed and grounded wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be
directed toward a certified or authorized products service center.
Reversing the Door Swing of Your Appliance
This appliance has the capability of the door opening from either the left or right
side. The unit is delivered to you with the door opening from the left side. Should
you desire to reverse the opening direction, please follow the instructions below:
1. Carefully lay the wine cellar on its back. Use cushioning to protect the floor and
appliance.
2. With the door shut, remove the two screws holding the bottom hinge to the
5
door.
3. Carefully lift off the door.
4. Unscrew the top hinge pin and cover and move to the opposite side.
5. Use the new bottom hinge provided in the plastic bag inside the wine cellar.
6. Place the door back onto the wine cellar, lining up the top hinge pin.
7. Connect the new bottom hinge pieces to the door and cabinet, using the
screws from the opposite side and following the same placement.
8. Keep the spare hinge, in case you ever want to set the door back to its original
position.
9. Install the handle on the right side of the door.
Installation of Handle
1. Remove the handle from inside the unit and unwrap it. There should be two
screws in the package.
2. Place the handle in position on the door frame so that the holes in the handle
are located over the matching holes in the door frame.
3. Gently pull back the rubber door gasket on the reverse side of the door frame
to expose the screw holes and insert a screw into each hole so that it engages
the handle.
4. Tighten each screw to secure the handle firmly.
6
OPERATING YOUR WINE CELLAR
The wine cellar should be placed where the ambient temperature is between 61
and 95 degrees Fahrenheit (16-35
°
C). If the ambient temperature is above or
below this range, the performance of the unit may be affected. For example,
placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior
temperatures to fluctuate.
Recommended Temperatures for Chilling Wine
Red Wines: 58-65
°
F (15-18
°
C)
Dry / White Wines 48-57
°
F (9-18
°
C)
Sparkling Wine 40-47
°
F (5-9
°
C)
The above temperatures may vary slightly depending on whether or not the
interior bulb is ON or OFF or whether the bottles are located on the upper/middle
or lower section.
Control Panel
ON/OFF Power
Connect the power cord to a properly grounded outlet. To turn the appliance on or
off, press the POWER button.
Setting the Temperature Control
Each cooling compartment of the wine cellar (upper and lower) is independently
controlled.
Set the desired cooling temperature by pressing one of the SET buttons. Each
depression of the button will scroll through the available temperature settings (for
each compartment) in increments of 1 degree. The temperature selected will flash
in the LED display for approximately 5 seconds, then revert back to display the
temperature of the internal cabinet.
Upper compartment: The temperature setting can be adjusted from 41
°
F to 50
°
F
(5
°
C to 10
°
C).
Lower compartment: The temperature setting can be adjusted from 50
°
F to 64
°
F
(10
°
C to 18
°
C).
7
To view the SET temperature at any time, press and hold the corresponding
button for approximately 5 seconds. The SET temperature will flash in the LED
display for 5 seconds.
In the event of a power interruption, all previous temperature settings are
automatically erased and each compartment will default to a preset temperature
setting of 43
°
F (5
°
C) for the upper compartment and 54
°
F (12
°
C) for the lower
compartment.
This unit may have the option to display temperatures in either Fahrenheit or
Celsius. To change the setting, press and hold both buttons (SET Upper/SET
Lower) simultaneously for approximately 5 seconds. A prompt (beep) will sound
and the blue pilot light adjacent to the
°
F or
°
C mode will illuminate. (Some
models do not offer this feature).
NOTES
• If the unit is unplugged, or turned off, or if there is a power failure, you must
wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this
time delay, the wine cellar will not start.
• When you use the wine cellar for the first time, or restart the wine cellar after it
has been shut off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variation
between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED readout.
This is normal and is due to the length of the inactivation time. Once the wine
cellar has been running for a few hours, it should operate normally.
Interior Light
You can turn the interior light ON or OFF by pushing the button marked with the
“bulb” symbol . The light will turn off automatically if it remains ON for 10
minutes. To turn the light back on, push the button marked with the “bulb”
symbol again. For best storage of wine, keep the light off except when
viewing.
Defrosting
During its operating cycle, the wine cellar defrosts itself every 8 hours.
Defrosting takes about 30 minutes. The water resulting from the defrost is
collected in a drip tray near the compressor where it is automatically evaporated.
During the defrosting operation, the displayed temperature may be higher than
the set temperature.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Your Wine Cellar
1. Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including
shelves and racks.
2. Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The
solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
3. Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
4. Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning the area near the
controls, or any electrical parts.
5. Wash the outside cabinet with warm and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and
wipe dry with a clean soft cloth. Clean the stainless steel trim with a product
specifically designed for this use.
Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the
temperature of your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is
opened. If power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take
the proper steps to protect the contents of your wine cellar.
Vacation Time
Leave the wine cellar operating during vacations of less then three weeks. For
periods longer than this, turn the wine cellar off and leave the door slightly ajar to
prevent odor from building inside the appliance.
Transporting your Wine Cellar
If you need to move your wine cellar once the box has been discarded:
1. Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
2. Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
3. Tape the door shut.
4. Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation.
Also protect the outside of the appliance with a blanket or similar item.
Energy-saving Tips
The wine cellar should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-
producing appliances, and out of the direct sunlight.
